🚗 Test Pass Congratulations!

An absolutely huge congratulations to Leona Tholanah, who passed her driving test in Northampton this morning with only two minor faults. 🎉👏

Leona took her driving lessons with Instructor Charles from Let’s Instruct Driving School.

Leona said: “It feels absolutely amazing to pass my test on the first time! It will make transport easier but I’ll still be driving just as carefully as before.

I’d recommend Charles as an instructor because of his patience and clearness when teaching me. Having come to him with some experience, he really helped me to polish off my driving and make sure I kept up the necessities of safe driving (especially checking my mirrors and blind spots).”

A terrific result and thoroughly well deserved. Safe driving, Leona! 🚗✨

4 Driving tests in a fortnight. Only 3 minors in total between all 4. Call Charles to pass now.

A huge congratulations goes to Maddison Bampkin who passed her driving test in Northampton at the first attempt with just two minor faults.

Maddison took her driving lessons with instructor Charles Moffat. This is what she had to say:

“Unbelievable! I can’t believe it! Passed first time with just 2 minors.

It sounds so simple but even being able to take myself to work or the shops and not rely on everyone around me, it’s feels amazing.

The saddest thing about passing will genuinely be not having my lessons with Charles. He is a fantastic instructor and a lovely person, anyone would be lucky to have him as their instructor.”
